George Orwell’s Animal Farm (1945) is one of the most influential political allegories in modern English literature. Though presented in the form of a simple animal fable, the novel offers a powerful critique of totalitarianism, political corruption, and the betrayal of revolutionary ideals. Orwell uses animals and a farm setting to reflect the events of the Russian Revolution and the rise of Stalinist dictatorship. This research paper aims to examine Animal Farm as a political allegory with special reference to power, propaganda, class exploitation, and the manipulation of language. The study adopts a qualitative and textual analytical method, supported by secondary sources such as books, journals, and critical essays. The paper concludes that Animal Farm remains relevant in contemporary society as a warning against authoritarianism and blind obedience.
